In 2009, Suzuki launched the Boulevard C90 SE, a special version of the base 2009 C90 motorcycle, which came with sobriety and sleek elegance best suited for those riders who liked a full-on big-bore cruiser without the added bling.
The bike was powered by a V-Twin engine that developed low-end torque matched by exciting top-end performance and offered a spacious seating position with smooth suspension for a comfortable ride.
With an aerodynamic windshield, leather saddlebags, a custom-designed backrest, engine guards, and a light bar, the C90 SE motorcycle, powered by the same engine that powered the entire C90 range, established its own unique identity.
The 2009 Suzuki Boulevard C90 SE motorcycle featured a double cradle steel frame made of large-diameter steel tubing for strength and rigidity that hosed a smooth suspension linked to a set of cast aluminum wheels.
The front cast-aluminum wheel was fitted with two 300 mm discs squeezed by a couple of four-piston calipers, while the rear one packed a 180 mm disc with a two-piston caliper that acted as braking performance.
In the power department, the C90 SE model had its heartbeat set by a 1,462cc four-stroke V-Twin air/oil-cooled engine that featured a Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection system for smooth low-mid throttle response and high torque output.
As for the power figures, the bike developed an output power of 66 hp with a peak at 4,800 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) of torque available at 2,800 rpm. The slash-cut exhaust system was tuned for low rpm power and released the gasses from the engine with a deep rumbling V-Twin sound.
